so one of theel great joys that i have from nafta i can go to the grocery store locally to buy avocados any time of year. but we don't grow them here in washington d.c. i need these for mother countries just like they need what wee can produce. it is a two-way street. >>host: democratic line from michigan. >> caller: hi. hi pedro. hi kid. i am pretty certain that i heard the tower in new york was built with chinese steel. everything we get from china cell phones that blowup, airbags that blowup, toys made with lead paint, why do we keep attacking our poor allies and people that we need in our lives to be there? >> guest: the worldld trade center was built in the 60s and that was long before the chinese economy.. that certainly was not chinese steel but so it has 50% of the worlds production and capacity it is important to know that is arn legitimate concern going back to the way president trump chooses to address this issue and it will not effectively deal with china unfortunatelyy but have negative implications with key allies and trading partners of canada, mexico, europe, japa japan,

always theel has strategy of listening carefully to what the public mood wants to hear and essay and present what the public mood wants as her own choice and her decision. so, it is not dominance. it is actually the opposite. anchor: at the top of the show in your statement, you said angela merkel is -- we had mentioned all the quarreling and uncertainty. he said that does weaken her. >> she had won the election. at a score that was not very good. and then she went through months and months of quarreling and delays. and when you look at her, it shows. she looks very strange. she looks a bit older and tired. on the other hand, angela merkel is somebody who is always in for surprises. she is able to rebound. much like --ry abroad. she is very much like emmanuel macron. she was completely relieved that he could work with merkel again and not have a germany some kind of politician that was not european. she is more outside germany vinci is in germany. anchor: nina, you -- nina: yeah, i would argue that you could clearly see sense september's election, the political parties did not want t

it shows the room and there's a -- wt ty say is a toilet beside the room, theel and the most suspicious thing about this whole situation is that my dad is pacing around the room, he takes off his shirt and he's thinking and he just doesn't feel good and once he goes into the room, eight hours later they want to give him breakfast and they see he's not there and they bring his body out of the bathroom. and that's like the first suspicious part of this whole event. because if he was such a high profile prisoner. i know firsthand one of my friend's father was in prison he tried to commit suicide twice and in a matter of seconds they stopped him. other people's stories, if you tack talk to people who had been prisoners they say it's impossibl impossible. >> the video shows he took his shirt off and put it around his neck and walked into this partition area that was the toilet area. >> yes. >> do you have any fears that that shirt was -- i mean that he was thinking of doing that? can you rule out suicide? >> impossible to know for sure. but based on what we knew, it's easy to speculate, it's

this was outside the announcement outside theel hote. about 200 protesters marching through the streets of downtown sacramento. their message, all immigrants are welcome in california. but the attorney general had a different tone. >> we are fighting to make your job safe, we are fighting to helplp you reduce crime in america, not increase it by keeping criminals here that ought to be deported. >> now that criticism from jeff sessions wasn'tno only aimed at libby schaaf. he targeted lieutenant governor gavin newsom. newsom says it's a badge of honor to be taking on the attorney general. one of the reporters on hand, she joins us live. jodi? newsom isn't having it. >> reporter: he sure isn't, jessica. lieutenant governor gavin newsom invited members of the community here to the state capitol to join him in reacting to the sessions' visit and what he called a a real and raw way. >> we reject this lawsuit. we reject jeff sessions. we reject the rhetoric. >> the lieutenant governor shared his thoughts on social media. talking in a candid con

was the ranking member as a former prosecutor she knows how to dig deep for this information and had theel staff and was also very helpful to help to enforce the subpoena. i will that her tell the story but really we knew backpage.com was engaged in this effort because we heard about it all over the country women and girls would say they were trafficked on backpage talking to victims or survivors in the national group said 75% on backpage they said it is 80% so we knew this was happening but couldn't get the informationlt because even though we would subpoena the documents or the testimony they were refused to show up it was an extraordinary process but the first time in 21 years the senate did something critical and thank you for her hard work i would like to ill time that. >> thank you to my colleagues and a mr. president you go back to tribal warfare that this is an example how we work together in a bipartisan way really in this case there has been an honest and true bipartisan p effort it was a pleasure to work with my colleagues as we did this investigation. how do i come to this t pl

one is on theel terville line. i appreciate it will be increased during the rush hour. that's all to the good. but i really haven't seen any improvement on the line. i have to walk a long distance to the bus stop to get buses that haven't been added to the system. and it's a very long system. that extends from downtown to the zoo. that is a very long route and it's deserves a lot of coaches for that. now, the people have paid dearly for the project. it's really hasn't -- it's made life miserable for a lot of people, including the loss of businesses and the rest of it. so the least people should have is more coaches that are available so to make that long walk to the bus stop at least make it halfway worth while, the other concern i have is the one california. you are going to decrease it by -- you are going to increase the waiting time by one half of a minute. i take ta line. that may not be so noticeable when it runs normally but when you have late bus and missing coaches you pay dearly for that. so that ought to be watched very, very carefully. it's heavily used and i
